To perform this replacement, remove the screws that secure the inner part of the fender to the front bumper. For convenience, turn the wheels to the right for better access.

You only need to remove the clips that hold the panel directly behind the headlight. Now, remove the rear cover of the headlight by detaching the spring that holds it in place.

Once the cover is removed, you will have easy access to all the bulbs in question. Simply pull them out, disconnect them from the socket, and replace them with new ones.

Reverse the steps for reassembly.
